A Win For Gun Owners!!

Finally!  Common Sense Prevails!

Congress has just passed a bill allowing residents of D.C. to own guns.  As you may recall guns were banned some time ago but given that the law was crappily written, the borders (Virginia, Maryland, etc.) porous, AND it violates 2nd Amendment rights, Congress took action.

Of course, the Dems are saying it is election year posturing.  (so what?  They do it, too.  FUCK ‘EM!)

To illustrate the stupidity of gun grabbers’ aversion to average citizenry being allowed to defend themselves (this IS D.C. after all!) Eleanor Holmes Norton, a nonvoting delegate to the House, said:

“the homicide rate in Washington is approaching a 20-year low, but the rate is rising among juveniles.”

My reply:  hey you stupid bitch-faced FORON!!!! The reason crime is down and homicide rates went with them is because the homies comitting them are in jail and will stay there a while.  The reason homicide rates are increasing among juveniles is that they are growing up and we’ve not put their felonious asses in jail yet!  Until then, innocent citizens should be able to own whatever they need to defend themselves against these gang-banging, drug dealing, pimping assholes.

National Ammo Week

Kim du Toit is fed up with the gun grabbers and has proposed a National Ammo Week, November 13-20th.

I’ll be buying several hundred rounds.

Read about it here. Then log in to his site (if you read us you should read him daily, too, and ALREADY be a registered commenter!  and let him know how many hundreds of rounds YOU are going to buy.  (Dottie, I’ll buy 100 in your name!)

Speaking of which, anyone know good online sites that sell good ammo at great (cheap) prices?

Letter To Our Enemies

I found this on Kim du Toit’s site which had it linked back to Horsefeathers’ site.

I couldn’t have said it better!  But then again, according to Allan, I am (correctly) the guy with the chain-saw.  I operate at a visceral level and struggle to come up with the right words to use as finesse is not my forte.

Since this came out the folks at Horsefeathers said the author contacted them to grant permission.  I wrote him for permission to post it and his response elicited a HUGE belly laugh:

Feel free to post it.  And, glad to know of your blog.  I will bookmark it as soon as I get home...to my computer...where I bookmark things....and drink...and polish my .45...and wait…

Contact the author at: kozloffm@uncw.edu and let him know what you think.

LETTER TO OUR ENEMIES

I’m an ordinary American. Wife (whom I love and respect), 2 kids (to whom I would give both of my kidneys), 2 cars (ten years old), big mortgage, and a job not always pleasurable.

I’ve worked hard all my adult life to provide for my family, to be useful, and not go out of my way to injure anyone. Like most Americans, I knew little about arab-muslim culture and believed that the developed nations were partly responsible for the poverty and authoritarian regimes that infest the middle east.

Things changed on 9/11/01 when you ruined the lives of at least 10,000 Americans.

These people instantly became my countrymen and you became my mortal enemy.

Ordinary Americans are arming themselves for war with you. I and many of my friends have closets full of handguns, rifles, shotguns and thousands of cartridges.

If we had enough ammunition and time, we would kill every last one of you.

We completely support our President and our armed forces. We only wish they would destroy you faster, but we are certain that they will.

We no longer listen to the insane words of Kerry, Harkin, Kennedy, Clark, and others whom we now see as ideologues who would sacrifice our country and our
lives on the alter of their vanity and desire for power.

We no longer listen to our secular mullahs, our media fools, preaching hatred of America and sapping our will with their lies and deceptions.

We watch your cowardly methods of killing by beheading. We are disgusted. But we are not afraid.

You turn your women and children into walking bombs. We are disgusted. But we are not afraid.

You shoot and rape children. You kill their mothers before their eyes. You burn, hang, and tear apart the bodies of your victims, and then play with body parts. We are disgusted. But we are not afraid.

Why should we fear you? What ARE you to be feared? You are cowards. Your bravado is a clown mask that hides the soul of a ghoul. You are not able even to manufacture the knives you use to butcher your bound victims.

Go here to finish this and read how he proposes we “solve” this.  It would not be right for me to publish this in its entirety without properly linking back to the original site.  So pay them a visit.  Let them know how much you appreciate this letter by leaving a comment.

Vilmar’s Latest Excellent Adventures

This ought to get your blood boiling.

Last night a bunch of us Republicans went out to exercise our First Amendment right to free speech (and free assembly) in front of the local Democratic Headquarters.

We’ve done this before and most of the local Dems take it in the spirit that it is given and exchange points of view with us.  We don’t cuss them out, we don’t physically challenge them, we don’t molest them, we do not go on their property, we do not approach nor do we intimidate them (or so I thought until last night.)

We had a couple of huge honkin’ Bush/Cheney signs (4 foot by 8 foot), and a bunch of smaller signs.  We stood at the entrance of the road leading to the Dem Hq and held up our signs and yelled things like “4 more years!”; “Who’s in the White House?  Bush!  Bush!  Bush!!”: “Don’t be a girlie man!  Vote Bush”; “Flip-Flop” and other stuff directed at Kerry.  Plus we made donkey noises. (those were fun!)

This went on for about 45 minutes as the Dems made their way to their HQ to listen to some geek from Kerry’s campaign talk to them.  (Note:  let me tell you, if the size of the crowd was any indication, Kerry is in a shit load of trouble.  I counted no more than 20 or so cars there.)

Then a goon came out of their HQ and stood there staring at us.  Then a couple of other goons came out.  Then Number 1 goon pulls out a cell phone.  We continue to taunt them (visions of Monty Python come to mind), never getting closer than 50 or so feet to the entrance of their building (where they were.) One of the other goons shouts at us to stick it up our bullhorn and walks across the street and through the parking lot of this medical building (where we were standing.) We figure he’s leaving but he walks into the building.  I think, “maybe he’s checking in on his illicit lover.  After all, he IS a democrat!” Then he leaves.  Instead of driving out of the parking lot in the proper direction, he backs out, away from us, and unto the main highway.  I was suddenly reminded of Kerry throwing his swiftboat into reverse and fleeing the scene during a gunfight necessitating his return to pick up that Rasmussen fellow who fell overboard or whatever.  The operant picture here is fleeing in reverse---just like Fuckface.

8 PM rolls around and we decide, since that’s when their meeting was to begin, that we should leave.  Plus it was dark and becoming pointless to be out there if they were all inside.

That’s when the fun began. A cop car pulls up.  He goes to talk to goon number 1.  We figure, “hmmmm, what’s up with the cop?  We have a right to be here.” I went to several of the guys and said that we should not leave.  At least not while the cop is here.  It would be a sign of weakness. 

We stay. 

We watch. 

The cop gets in his car and we think it’s all over.  Not quite.  He’s calling for backup.

Meanwhile this other assclown drives into aforementioned medical building’s parking lot, IDs himself as some sort of building supervisor and begins to tell us this is private property and did we ask permission to use it.  (Mystery solved about the reverse driving assclown.  He’s one of the owners of the place and called this stupidvisor guy.) We all look at each other and know that between the street and the parking lot, the county owns 15 feet right of way.  So we go there.  I shout out to him, “hey!!!  Do these cars (referring to the Democrats’ cars) have permission to be in your lot?  Did they ask?” You know the answer, right?  He backs out, too!  Must be a Democrat thing.

Meanwhile, the cop is still there.  Somewhere in between all this we break into song and belt out America the Beautiful.

By now, number 2 cop shows up--a Sergeant.  OOOOOHHH!!!  We’re scared now.  Both cops talk to goon 1 and we continue to verbally taunt the Dems.  I make chicken noises.  I also meow like a cat in the hopes they will figure out I am indicating they are a bunch of pussies for calling the cops.  I make jackass noises.  (far be it from me to blow my own horn but I do a fine impersonation of all these critters!!)

The cops come over to talk to us and say that they were called because the Dummycrap women were feeling “threatened” and “intimidated!” Now ain’t that a bunch of pussified shit?  The head cop tells us we can do our thing when men are there but to refrain when women are as it could be construed a threat or disturbance of peace. 

I don’t know about you but I am not sure how that can be with women but not with men.  I asked the cop what we should do if a man AND woman show up together?  Could we taunt them, then?  Or does the mere presence of a woman stifle my ability to free speech?

Hey, the cops were doing THEIR job and I have nothing against them.  They were trying to maintain the peace.  They have to deal with jackasses all day and we were not about to make their lives miserable by harassing them.  I could never be a cop.  I’d get kicked out for “overuse of the nightstick” phenomena!  hehehehe

By then, it was REAL dark and our purpose had been served so we left.

But not quietly.

I walk away yelling, (cue Monty Python again) “HELP!  HELP!  I’m being oppressed!”

Ya know, I’m tempted to call the sheriff to get his take on this.  Maybe even a lawyer.  What the cop said sounds like it was said more to defuse the situation than an actual point of law given WHAT we were saying.  Making general political comments somehow does not fit into my definition of intimidation or threat.

I AM however, looking forward to the next protest.  We should do the same thing we did last night and if I have my way, we should ignore the cop’s “guidance” from last night, too.  I just can’t see anyone being arrested for doing what we did but if we DID get arrested we should then threaten to sue the Democratic party for harassment, false imprisonment, defamation etc.  I’d like to see anyone prove a case where saying things like, “4 more years” is considered threatening.

All in all, isn’t it typical of dems to pull this shit?  Soon as things don’t go like they want, they begin to act like petulant children yelling for their mommy.  They go crying to the police to protect them because they do not know how to defend themselves.  They are morally, ethically, logically and intellectually bankrupt.  After all, they support Kerry, right?  And he speaks French.  And the French have never really won any wars, have they?  But they DO know how to surrender!!

P.S.  I hope someone has contacts in the Dem party who reads this blog and forwards this to the local Dem Executive Committee Chairman.  (for all I know, it could have been goon #1 from last night!)

Speaking Of Arizona

Finally, a state who’s citizenry have figured it out and want to control their own destiny.

Why is it that as surely as this passes some activist judge will say the will of the people is unconstitutional?

Checkin’ In

Well, I made the delivery of the ice and water yesterday evening. It was all gone in just an hour or two. Folks down there are really hurting. Power is still out over half of South Alabama and the Florida Panhandle. I brought a few family members back with me and we’re loading up again preparing to make another run. As for the tremendous forests in South Alabama all I can tell you is .... toothpicks .... lots of toothpicks. The sound of chainsaws is a steady monotonous drone wherever you go and so far that isn’t too far with all the roads just now getting cleared. The devastation is mind-bending. If you can spare a few bucks to the Red Cross and other relief agencies it sure would be appreciated. Folks are camped out on the floor in schools and churches and five or six families, in some cases, are sharing a single house. It’s getting better but there’s a long way to go.

By the way .... we found Chucky last night.

Expiration Date Today

The federal ban on “assault weapons” expires today. After ten years of one of the most ridiculous laws imposed by the Clinton administration, Americans are free to purchase the same guns that criminals are using to assault us every day. The law has had little or no effect in reality and was intended only to provide a sop for the anti-gun groups that Clinton was courting for their votes. Thank God the evil that politicians do does not live forever after they are gone.

And remember, a gun is just a tool. Like any other, it is just as good or bad as the person wielding it, no more no less. Practice firearms safety at all times .... and keep your powder dry. The anti-gun groups will not let this go uncontested, I promise you. They will not be happy until only the criminals have guns and the rest of us are left to defend ourselves with spitballs.

And when all the guns are rounded up who will keep the government from getting out of hand? Hmmmmmm ....?

Three Years After

It has been three years since we were attacked on our own soil; three years since nineteen madmen flew four airplanes loaded with jet fuel into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a field in Pennsylvania; three years since we found ourselves involved in a war we did not start, did not want and did not expect. Over three thousand lives were lost that day. They were innocent civilians simply going about their lives, not soldiers in a war. No, those people who died that day were just plain folks going to work to support their families and live the American dream. The tragedy we all felt that day still lives with us. The families of those who died still have to live with their loss and most of them are probably still wondering .... why? I can’t give them an answer. I can only give them my prayers and a solemn promise that the tragedy we suffered will not be forgotten.

That is one of the reasons this blog was started. Last March we held a contest and asked everyone to submit essays describing how they felt and what happened to them on that tragic day. We all read the essays and voted for the best. However, we were all winners for refusing to forget the hurt that was done to us. I urge all of you to go read those essays and remember. They are posted on-line here and are a permanent part of this blog site (See “Required Reading: Memories Of 9/11” in the right sidebar).

After 9/11 this country was united and we all stood together against the enemy that would destroy us. We were proud to be Americans and we demonstrated to the world that we could “take a licking and keep on ticking” as the commercial says. On that day we were all stunned and knocked down with our grief over our lost friends. Our world was shattered. But we got up off our back, stood tall and started to rebuild, recover and go after the bad guys. The evildoers, as President Bush called them .. and they were evildoers, nothing more and nothing less, did not succeed. They were small, narrow-minded men bent on killing Americans, their hatred of us was the only thing they lived for. They really didn’t need a reason. They just hated us and what we stand for .. freedom. Their world is a dark one where women are abused and considered second-class citizens. They cherish war against people who do not believe as they do. They burn with hatred of all things that are different from themselves. They were, and still are, insane madmen with no goal in life except death for their cause. We were an easy target because we thought we were safe behind our Atlantic and Pacific walls. We found out that no ocean is wide enough to keep out determined madmen.

Since that day, however, thanks to President Bush and a majority of Congress we have (1) raised our shields here at home and (2) taken the war to the enemy. In both we are succeeding. There have been no further attacks on American soil in the last three years and we have done it without locking the country down or instituting harsh measures on the American people. Yes, we have to go through that ridiculous routine at the security check-ins at airports but other than that we have not really lost any of our basic freedoms that a declaration of martial law might have taken away. There have been no internment camps, no suspension of habeus corpus, no rationing and no spying into citizen’s private lives as has happened in previous wars.  No, we all have gone about our lives and trusted our government to take care of the problem and keep us safe. Because of that attitude, the economic recovery has progressed and things are getting better. Our law enforcement agencies have quietly done a magnificent job protecting us from our enemies while we keep America strong by doing what we’ve always done .. go to work each day and provide for ourselves and our families, interact with each other socially and politically, and keep dreaming the American dream.

On the external front against the evildoers overseas, progress is even better. Our troops, in cooperation with good people in the Middle East who also want to be free and safe, have cleaned out the pest hole in Afghanistan where the perpetrators of 9/11 had created a safe base from which to launch the attacks. The Taliban has been routed, removed from power and the Al Qaeda terrorist group has been destroyed and dispersed, their funding removed and most of their “soldiers” killed or captured. Their leaders are either dead, captured or on the run. Today there is a democracy in Afghanistan and national elections will take place soon for the first time in that country’s history.

In Iraq we have deposed a tyrant who was guilty of murdering millions of his own people and who started two major wars with his neighbors. This madman who used chemical and biological weapons not only against his enemies but against his own people was dragged from a “spider hole” stinking, bearded and covered with lice after eluding our troops for months. Now he will stand trial before his people. Those people will soon have a democratically elected government. They are already on their way to building the first democracy in that region. Sadly, we have lost just over 1,000 soldiers in that war in Afghanistan and Iraq and, I might add, every one of those troops was somebody’s son or daughter. They will be missed. But what has their sacrifice brought us? Yes, we are definitely safer without Saddam Hussein in power. He had defied the entire world for decades, sought weapons of mass destruction and announced his hatred of not only America but his neighboring Arab states as well, starting costly wars with both Iran and Kuwait. Our troops sacrificed their lives to give freedom to the Iraqi people and rid the world of the menace of Saddam Hussein. In that they have succeeded. There is still work to do though if we wish to make sure they didn’t die in vain. Other evildoers who don’t want to see free men and women in the Middle East are hard at work in Iraq trying to destroy the new democracy there. They have to be stopped .. and they will be stopped. How? One thing that Americans have always had in large quantities is determination We will see this thing through, come hell or high water.

Which brings me to the reason for this editorial. This is an election year in America and as usual the political partys are fighting it out between themselves over who should be the next President. Foreigners may look at the divisiveness, arguing and infighting and see America splitting apart. Wrong! This is just our normal show that the politicians put on for the American people every four years. They entertain us with their rhetoric, accusations, mud-slinging, attack ads, etc., etc. for several months, then the American people go to the polls and freely elect the best man (or woman) for the job. Then the politicians go back to their jobs that we assigned to them for another four years. It’s a never-ending cycle because America is a never-ending work in progress.

So to our enemies we, the American people want them to contemplate that fact. America is a never-ending work in progress. Why? Well, let me allow the men who created this country over two centuries ago to explain it to them and the entire world. This is what we are and what we believe ....

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Proclamation From Caesar: So Be It ….

Before I head off to Fleet Center for another evening of agonizing bullshit (which I am enduring only for the sake of you, our dear readers), I would like to pass along something I just received (from David H. - thanks, dude!):

---

MUST READ! - This is a reality check for the government and for us. After all, THE LAW IS THE LAW.
.........................................................................
If the US government determines that it is against the law for the words "under God" to be on our money, then, so be it.
.........................................................................
And if that same government decides that the "Ten Commandments" are not to be used in or on a government installation, then, so be it.
.........................................................................
And since they already have prohibited any prayer in the schools, of which they deem their authority, then so be it.
........................................................................
I say, "so be it," because I would like to be a law abiding US citizen.
.........................................................................
I say, "so be it," because I would like to think that smarter people than I are in positions to make good decisions. I would like to think that those people have my best interest at heart.
.........................................................................
BUT, YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE I'D LIKE?
........................................................................
I'd like my mail delivered on Christmas, Good Friday & Easter & Sundays.
.........................................................................
I'd like the US Supreme Court to be in session on Christmas, Good Friday & Easter as well as Sundays. Why should these be holidays for them if they don't believe in the reason we have them?
.........................................................................
I'd like the Senate and the House of representatives to not have to worry about getting home for the "Christmas Break." What is Christmas without Christ?
.........................................................................
I'm thinking that a lot of my taxpayer dollars could be saved, if all government offices & services would work on Christmas, Good Friday, Easter & Sundays. It shouldn't cost any overtime since those would be just like any other day of the week to a government that is trying to be "politically correct".
........................................................................
This would not affect any "non-governmental" business since everyone else still has the freedom of religion, we could all still enjoy our holidays.
.........................................................................
So I guess if they continue to bow to the wishes of the few, & if this gets out to the right people, maybe they would bow to the wishes of the many.
.........................................................................
So be it...........

Caesar will have more from the Belly Of The Beast later tonight ....

On Gay Marriage

One of the hot-button issues of this Presidential campaign is the subject of "gay marriage". Personally, I think everyone has it all wrong. That includes the Left and the Right. We have more important issues to obsess over during this election year, like national security, the economy, taxes, etc. I think it's time to defuse this issue before it gets out of hand.

For the record, I am not homophobic or "anti-gay". I am, however, a staunch Conservative and can proudly boast that I have never voted for a Democrat or Liberal candidate for office since 1972 (when I became eligible to vote). Regarding homosexuality, I can sum up my entire philosophy about homosexuals in three words: "I DON'T CARE". It is no more any of my business what Bruce and Steve do in their home than it is what Bill and Susan do in theirs. I just don't care. All I ask is that they keep it to themselves. I don't want to have Bruce and Steve over for dinner and listen to their sexual exploits any more than I want to have Bill and Susan over for lunch and listen to them talk about their love life. LA-LA-LA-LA-LA .... I CAN'T HEAR YOU ....

Love is a private matter between two human beings. The only type of "love" I absolutely, totally disapprove of is that between that damned gecko and the gorgeous brunette in the GEICO commercials on TV. There is no place for "lizard love" in my universe.

I also have a problem with incest and polygamy although not as intense as my dislike of "lizard love". Anything else .... I couldn't care less. As long as it involves two consenting adults.

Which brings me to the subject of "gay marriage" (again). Here's the problem: Conservatives and Liberals are taking it too seriously because of an often misunderstood Article of the Constitution ....

Article IV

Section 1. Full faith and credit shall be given in each state to the public acts, records, and judicial proceedings of every other state. And the Congress may by general laws prescribe the manner in which such acts, records, and proceedings shall be proved, and the effect thereof.

Section 2. The citizens of each state shall be entitled to all privileges and immunities of citizens in the several states.

What did the framers of the Constitution intend with that? Generally speaking, they wanted to insure some sort of homogeneity between the states such that if you bought land in Georgia, the Florida government had to recognize you as a landowner. Or if you were tried of a crime in Nebraska and acquitted, then the Texas government had to recognize that you were a free man. And on and on ....

Here's the catch, though .... whatever you may think, in legal terms "marriage" is a contract between you and another human being that is licensed by the state in which you reside. Did you catch that word? Let me repeat it: licensed. Marriage is not a "right" bestowed upon you by a state or federal government. You are simply given a "marriage license" that entitles you to live together legally and enjoy the benefits of your mutual contract.

Here's the point everyone out there (and I do mean everyone) is missing: historically, "licenses" have not been transferable from state to state. Don't believe me? Try moving from Mississippi to Indiana. You have 60 days to turn in your Mississippi driver's license, take a written test and get issued an Indiana license. Fail the test and you get no license and can't drive in Indiana. Or an even better example, move from Indiana to Illinois. Your license to carry a concealed weapon is no longer valid at all and you better leave your firearms at home. The list goes on: fishing licenses issued in Louisiana are not valid in Arkansas - you need to re-apply. Hunting licenses, ditto.

Marriage licenses are the only state-issued licenses that have never been treated this way and that has only been by public consensus. A marriage license is still a state issued license just like the others mentioned above, no more and no less.

The solution to this whole "gay marriage" issue is really quite simple: treat marriage licenses just like other state-issued licenses. If you get married in Ohio and later move to Wyoming, you go to the courthouse, present evidence of your marriage in Ohio, take a test (optional) and get issued a Wyoming marriage license. If the voters of Wyoming pass a law saying "gay marriage" is not legal then .... let me see, you get issued a temporary permit to live together while you're in Wyoming but without the benefits of a legal Wyoming license (whatever they may be). I'm sure our various state legislators can sort out the details.

This solution is really very simple and satisfies everyone, Liberals as well as Conservatives. If a homosexual couple wants to get married in California or Massachusetts and the law there says the state may issue them a marriage license, then they may feel free to do so and enjoy all the privileges of married bliss (whatever they may be).

If, however, that homosexual couple decides to move to some other state where "gay marriage" licenses are not issued, they know beforehand that the rules will be different in their new home. And if they decide to sue in their new home state because they think their "rights" are being violated, everyone yell "BULLSHIT!" because, as stated above, marriage is not a "right". It is merely a state-issued license.

On this issue, Conservatives are wrongly assuming it is a Constitutional issue and an attack on "traditional marriage" from the Left. Liberals are wrongly assuming it is a Constitutional tool they can use. Both sides are wrong for all the wrong reasons. Liberals want to use state-issued licenses to enforce a Liberal agenda nationwide, regardless of what the people in other states think. They wrongly assume marriage is a "right". Conservatives, on the other hand, see it as something in the Constitution that needs to be fixed or sodomy will be forced on the nation as a whole, thereby destroying the "sanctity of marriage".

I say to both sides: the solution is right there, in front of your eyes .. as I described above. Stop fighting over a non-issue.

And while we're at it, let's make marriage licenses renewable every ten years or so, just like driver's licenses. If the marriage is failing, the couple just doesn't renew the license (of course suitable penalties would apply for "early withdrawal"). We could put millions of divorce lawyers out of business overnight. And that would be a good thing, wouldn't it? And don't even get me started on "learner's permits" ....

OK, everyone! Time to weigh in on this issue! The discussion is wide-open. Tell me if you think I'm full of shit on this issue. Tell me if you think I'm right or wrong. Speak your mind or forever hold your peace.

GRR-R-R-REAT News!

After 6 years of discussing and arguing, after 6 years of trying to convince him that the party which he stood for was corrupt, vile, unethical and lacking in the moral values which he held, I was able to convince my father, age 82, that he should become a republican. He'd been making a habit of voting republican for some time now (Reagan, Bush, etc.) and kept insisting it did not make any difference how he was registered. Of course, I tried explaining that whereas what he said was true in the general elections, it was in the primaries that the candidates were elected and that if he gave up his voice in the primaries his selections in the general elections could be limited to someone he might not have liked. For six years I failed.

I even tried the old "father-son" bonding thing by telling him it'd be the best birthday present he could ever give me. No luck.

It was not until I actually took the initiative, got the paperwork from the Supervisor of Elections office and took it to him that he signed. All this from a guy who admitted to having voted in the Dummycrap pre-primaries in February for the candidate LEAST likely to EVER win nomination---Al Sharpton, simply because he can't stand The Poodle, John F**king Kerry. You gotta love it!

OBTW, my father became a citizen in the late 60s more because his job required it than anything else (the factory he worked in had defense contracts.) I asked him why he registered as a democrat and he said that as soon as he returned from his swearing in the union goons in his shop told him that is what he should do.

I feel content now, knowing the US will be a bit better place with one fewer registered dem.

OH, HAPPY DAY!!!

A couple on guns

Gun owners are celebrating in Virginia as it is now permitted to openly carry weapons.

OBTW, crime is at the lowest rate in years. You'd a thunk it?

---

Mike Adams, that professor at the University of North Carolina who rants and rages against bullshit in the educational system, put out a nice piece about some recommendations on "first gun" purchases weapons for those who are in the market to purchase one or more weapons.

I don't know shit from shinola about pistols or shotguns or rifles so feel free to read the article, comment here or comment directly with Mr. Adams. All I know is that when I owned a S&W .357 with a six inch barrel, it was a sweet pistol. The .38 wasn't bad either. I envision a future purchase of a 40 cal semi-automatic pistol soon and possibly one rifle and one shotgun. The rifle will be for long-range use on large varmints (like barking moonbats) and the shotgun will be for close range work also on that same pesky varmint. This, of course, after the next civil/class war begins. BWAH HA HA HA!!

Laugh Your Ass Off

I don't know how he does it but Emperor Misha has discovered another priceless gem. I'm gonna have to go to Best Buy tomorrow and buy a new keyboard 'cause I just sprayed my entire drink all over this one. Go take a look at this and you'll see why. It's a 3.9 MB Flash video and if you're not on broadband it might take a while to load. Trust me. It's well worth it. Why? George Bush and John Kerry singing Woody Guthrie's "This Land Is Your Land". With appropriate visuals. Mheh-heh-he-he-he ....... ROFLMAO!

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
